ABSTRACT
If you educate a female then you have successfully educated a community, goes the sayings: so female – child education has become a contemporary issue to community in the world because girls/women are usually discriminated against in all spheres of life including education. It is based on this, that this project examines the female – child marginalization and with unequal access to education compared to male counterpart in Konshisha Local Governemrnt Area of Benue State. In carrying out the research above, data were collected through questionnaires administration and in depth interview. The simple percentage analysis method was used to analyze the responses elicited from 400 respondents and Chi-Square was used to analyze the hypothesis. The study reveals that cultural practices serve as hindrance to female-child education and that inaccessibility of the female – child education makes vulnerable diseases such as HIV/AIDS, early marriage, denial of fundamental rights and child labour. The project concluded that if female-child education is fostered, she will be self-reliant, adequately socialize and well empowered to contribute meaningfully to the community as well as skills of problems solving to an appreciable extent. The paper therefore recommends that education should be made accessible to the female-child at all levels and awareness programme should be mounted to redeem the image of the female-child to make the world a better place for her to live.
